    <thetext>The DESCRIPTION doesn&apos;t support break the line manually currently, it would break automatically in the output rpm package, it would be great if we can support it.</thetext>

    <thetext>Test case:

Steps:
1. Modify the DESCRIPTION section in a bb file, add &quot;\n&quot; in the line. For example:
DESCRIPTION = &quot;Foo1\nFoo2&quot;

2. Build the package with rpm, deb and ipk:

3. Check the DESCRIPTION section in package&apos;s information:
For rpm: rpm -pqi foo.rpm
For deb: dpkg --info foo.deb
For ipk: dpkg --info foo.ipk

Expects results:
In the past, check the DESCRIPTION section in package&apos;s information, it would be: 

Description :
Foo1\nFoo2

Now, it should be:

Description :
Foo1
Foo2</thetext>
